‘How to Protect Your Online Reputation in 2017’ – Entrepreneur
Ryan Erskine says, “We live in a search-happy world. If you’ve spoken to a client recently, networked, or went in for an interview, you should absolutely assume you’re being Googled. Somewhere, someone is typing your name into that search box and making a judgment based on what they find.
When people hear this, their first reflex is to hide. Perhaps you’ve changed your name on Facebook, made your Twitter feed private or started spending less time on social media altogether. Sure, you can delete your questionable content and watch what you say online. You can fix your privacy settings and try to disappear, but that’s like deciding to keep quiet to avoid saying anything bad because you know people listen to what you say.
Your online reputation is the information people find about you online, so hiding behind privacy settings actually puts you at risk if something negative were to come out about you or your company. Make no mistake”.
